Load Context Skill
Purpose
Load all relevant context for a PM work session, apply writing rules, and confirm readiness. This is the fastest way to get Claude fully briefed in under 30 seconds.
Steps
Step 1: Read Core Identity
Read ABOUT-ME/CLAUDE.md — hold the PM identity, output preferences, current focus, and stakeholder map.
If the file doesn't exist at that path, look for CLAUDE.md in the root directory.
Step 2: Apply Anti-Style Rules
Read ABOUT-ME/anti-style.md — apply all writing rules immediately and permanently for this session.
If the file doesn't exist, skip this step and note it as missing.
Step 3: Load Product Context
Read PROJECTS/meridian-os/CLAUDE.md — load product context, stakeholders, OKRs, and current sprint.
If that path doesn't exist, read meridian-company/company-context.md as a fallback.
Step 4: Check Current State
If PROJECTS/meridian-os/roadmap.md exists — scan it and note the current active features.
Output Format
After reading all files, respond with exactly this format:
Context loaded. Ready to work.
Product: [product name and one-line description]
Current focus: [from ABOUT-ME/CLAUDE.md — current sprint goal]
Active OKR: [from project CLAUDE.md — Q2 primary OKR]
Writing rules: [✅ Anti-style active | ⚠️ anti-style.md not found]
Output target: CLAUDE-OUTPUTS/
Active roadmap items: [2-3 bullets from roadmap.md if available]
Missing files: [list any files that weren't found]

Error Handling
- If ABOUT-ME/CLAUDE.md is missing: say "⚠️ ABOUT-ME/CLAUDE.md not found — complete Module 0.4 to create it"
- If project CLAUDE.md is missing: say "⚠️ No project context found — complete Module 1.2 to set it up"
- Never invent context that isn't in a file — only report what you actually read
Notes
- Do not summarize file contents back to the user — just confirm they're loaded
- This skill should complete in under 30 seconds
- After running, Claude is fully briefed and ready to do real work immediately
